Peter, James and John are given a preview of Jesus, the Son of Man in his glorious kingship. He is joined by Moses and Elijah, representing the law and the prophets of the Old Testament. Peter is in awe and asks if they might remain in this state of being. Fear overtook the three when they saw the cloud and heard the voice of God.
All too often, ignorance and fear keep us from understanding what is and what will be. We pray for clarity and for the courage to walk in faith toward the truth.
